Rolling Stones invadeGuitar Hero

A smattering of Rolling Stones songs will be on the new Guitar Hero app. It's the Guitar Hero game, just in app form. So now you can pretend to play the guitar on your iPhone, not just at home.

Embarrassing yourself has never been so public! If it's inappropriate to play air guitar in the middle of the grocery store to "Paint It Black," I do not want to be appropriate.

Usher in DJ Hero 2Usher's dance song "OMG" will be in the new game DJ Hero 2. He told USA Today, "These kids can't come to the club. This game brings them to that experience."

Great! But vodka martinis are really going to eat up their allowances.

Naughty Bear game will be awesome

Coming out this week: Naughty Bear. You play a teddy bear who is not invited to the other bears' party. So you get even.

It looks violent. It looks graphic. It looks brutal. It looks hilarious.

The bear police in the game are called The Fuzz. Zombie bears are called The Living Ted.

It's cartoon bears committing cartoonish punishment on each other. Best of all, the mean bears look like Care Bears. Now if some of the bad guys looked like Smurfs, I would be all set to wreak havoc on the 1980s.

It is probably not for the kids. Or at least not for their little sisters. But then, some little sisters are super-tough and make their brothers run in terror. For them, this game is perfect.

Gamebits appears every Monday on the TechKnow page of the Birmingham News. Gamebits writer Joe Crowe is also mad at Jem and the Holograms. You might say he is truly, truly, truly outraged.
